Hi fellow selfhosters!

What hostnames do you use for your systems and services?
And maybe why if it’s an interesting story.

I’ll start:
Steam Deck: krax
Smartphone: krix (once I get LineageOS installed again)
MiniPC: krux
Reserved for future use: krex & krox

Creative, I know. 😅 The names have no deeper meaning. The x comes from Linux. That’s it.

I know some of you use god names of certain pantheons, such as Thor. But I find that boring as a lot of people are doing that.  
 
 

Now let your pants down and tell me all about

your embarrassing host names!

    Characters from the Murderbot Dairies, mostly

    • main laptop (t480 currently) – Murderbot;
    • previous main laptop (x270) – MB20;
    • homeserver – ART;
    • a TV box running armbian – Miki;
    • t440p is currently Behemoth (from Bulgakov’s “Мастер и Маргарита”), although I’ll probably rename it to Holism;
    • x230t – Three;
    • a random thin client I occasionally use to test stuff is yogurt (from" love, death & robots"), not sure if I’ll rename them.
